electrical fault. Have your motorcycle inspected
by your dealer.
Engine oil consumption varies and oil quality
deteriorates according to riding conditions and
time elapsed.
Check the engine oil level regularly, and add the
recommended engine oil if necessary. Dirty oil or
old oil should be changed as soon as possible.
